Notes

By now, y'all are into a routine and are able to:

1. take care of school work,
2. eat right,
3. get enough sleep, and
4. train regularly.

September was quite an adjustment, but we got through it and are ready to ramp up the training!

I'll have an October schedule ready to go shortly.  Watch for an email with that.

If you're not in a structured dry-land program (high school team), I hope you've gotten your own off the ground.  So far, we should be doing plenty of planks, pushups, situps (crunches), dips, pullups (flex arm hangs), and wheels.  Let's add jumping rope to your routine.  Be sure to wear a good pair of tennis shoes.

Need healthy snack ideas?  Head over to GWG's site for a list of thirty (30) from dietitian Julie DuBois here.

It looks like we need a little more variety on our backstroke drills.  If you're in a rut, why not add 3-3-3, double arm, or 1-arm drills?  Also, the Popov drill y'all do for freestyle is a great drill for backstroke as well.
